It follows my investigation into the state of Second Life today, with insight from many gamers who have stuck with it for all of its ten-year lifespan.

Humble posted his departure notice on Facebook today. It reads, "It's been a great 3 years! All my thanks to my colleagues at Linden Lab and our wonderful customers I wish you the very best for the future and continued success! I am starting up a company to make Art, Entertainment and unusual things! More on that in a few weeks!"

Humble's work-history includes The Sims 2, The Sims 3, EverQuest and more. He became Linden Lab's CEO in January 2011.

We'll have more on this as it comes.
